An unputdownable EMP box set with a brilliant twist!

Lights Out

The nation's power grid has failed. Hundreds of millions are left without basic utilities, and the enemy responsible for the EMP's detonation now wreaks havoc throughout the countryside.

After an EMP crisis shakes the foundation of North America, Greenhill, an insignificant town, becomes the safe haven for a family.

In a flash, an EMP blast disables North America's entire east coast. Separated from her husband and daughter, 39-year-old psychologist Naomi Baxter finds herself trapped on the streets of Philadelphia. The brutal February cold gnaws at her skin as she strives to reunite with her family. Having a keen understanding of the human condition, Naomi knows that she must find her daughter before anarchy consumes the city.

Loved the story did not like the 2nd narrator

Holy Toledo! Who thought it was a good idea to have an AI read the second part? The reader lacked intonation, humanity, and the ability to really read the story at times sounded mechanical. I almost stopped listening it was so bad. It got better at the end but that person is not a good narrator. On the flip side I really really liked the first narrator!

OK story, terrible reading

I don't usually look at reviews before buying a book but I wish I had on this one. The story is interesting enough but there's way too much guilt-driven agony by the protagonist--way, way too much. She sees hundreds of death yet agonizes again and again for her one killing. I am in compliance with all the reviews I've read today, that the reading is mechanical and English is not the reader's primary language. The book was read word-by-word (including a great number of mispronunciations (as in, "mis-pronoun-ciation") and never as a sentence. There was no push and pull in a sentence, no ebb and flow, no start at the beginning and drive to the end; it was word-by-word. How can that be? What were they thinking?

I have hundreds of books in my library and this is the first time I've stopped to write a review even though doing so does not return the 25+ hours of listening time.

pretty good.

did anyone else see Jerry Smith from rick and morty when Calvin spoke? I dont know if the author meant for me to hate him but if so they did a great job. the narrator wasnt my favorite, pretty monotone with hardly any inflection

Okay collapse story

The reading sounded like a robot who did not speak English as a first language. Too many mispronunciations. I did like that the stories were grouped together.

Physically painful!

The first book was a cookie cutter dystopian novel. Not good but not bad. The second book was a tie between ridiculously written and ridiculously read. So very sorry I wasted my money!!
